changed it up a little bit with this sub i bought at the oc car show. Took a little bit of modding to get it to fit but you wouldnt be able to tell it wasnt stock if it didnt say pioneer.


also trying to find somewhere to hide the amp and theres not enough room under the mat with the spare there, any suggestions?
Also my rear speaker sounds blown and my passenger side door one keeps making all my other speakers shut down when i have the volume up, is it a bad speaker also? or a short circut in the wiring? I redid the wires from the harness to the headunit and it still messes up

 

Nice. I dont know anything about your other questions, but what model sub is that and how does it bump?

 

its a kicker comp something ill get it when i get home, its a shallow mount 10" but still doesnt fit the way the box is now. Its sounds alot better then stock and is comparable to most 12" subs and doesnt take up all that room!

 

That's a real solid fit there! Looks clean, I wonder if you could get the silver paint on the enclosure off with some paint thinner...

But can you explain more on how you know it's your passenger door speaker that shut down the whole system? I need more details so I can potentially help you. You might have an issue with it shorting somewhere, but it's just speculation at this point.

 

idk what im gonna do about the pioneer thing yet, but as for the speakers ones bad i know that for sure it just sounds crappy and plays mostly static. The other one that im having issues with when i turn up the volume on my pioneer avh4200 past say 15 it will play for a second and then all the speakers will cut off. The guy at crutchfield said he thinks its a bad speaker thats shorting out and the whole thing is shutting down to protect everything. I unplugged that one speaker and that peoblem went away. So im thinking its just a bad speaker, another one... So ill probably just need 2 more stock speakers but idk if i feel like taking it in for warranty for 2 stock speakers.

 

Yeah, sounds like you have the solution to your own problem already! Haha, yeah that would be the speaker shorting everything out more than likely. It sounded like it was going into protect mode from what you wrote earlier.

 

Nice. that sounds like something I should look into. Theres how-to floating around here on how to adapt a shallow mount sub just like you did but that kicker may be more doable. And as far as your prob looks like by you disconnecting the bad speaker and the prob going away, you found the culprit. Id start there by replacing that bad speaker.

 

Looks nice in the stock caseing

 

Yeah idk ill figure it out lol but the kicker one i had to shave most of the mounting circle and some of the inside, ill make one for you if you'd like lol

 

LOL Im more of a DYIer too. You did pretty much almost the same as in that how-to then. Props sir!

 

yes the speakers are blown id look at replacing them and doing an amp bypass

 

how does it sound???? hits way harder i bet
